The Korea Sports Promotion Foundation held a donation signing ceremony with the Korea Bobsleigh and Skeleton Federation to promote the preservation and exhibition of South Korea's sports heritage.

Held on the 8th at the Olympic Hall, the signing ceremony was attended by Ha Hyung-ju Lee (President), Jeon Chan-min (Chairman), IOC Athlete Committee member Won Yoon-jong, and other officials. The event featured the donation of a bobsled used during the '2018 PyeongChang Winter Olympics' to the Sports Promotion Foundation, with both institutional investors pledging continued cooperation.

The donated sled was used by the four-man national team when they won South Korea's first-ever bobsleigh silver medal at the 2018 PyeongChang Winter Olympics, marking Asia's first such achievement. The sled will be preserved and managed in optimal condition at the National Sports Museum for future exhibitions, educational programs, and research.

Ha Hyung-ju Lee (President) stated, "This donated item is a historic sports artifact of great value, as it brought South Korea its first Olympic medal in bobsleigh." He added, "We sincerely thank the Korea Bobsleigh and Skeleton Federation for promptly donating this precious artifact. The National Sports Museum will preserve it carefully and present it to the public."
